Human Body: Pushing The Limits

Human Body: Pushing the Limits takes you across continents and introduces you to people who have pushed their bodies to the max.

This groundbreaking documentary uses CGI technology and hi-tech camera work to examine their physical ordeals in vivid detail both externally and internally!

From mountain climbing, martial arts and desperate rescues to medical breakthroughs and professional sports, here are the tales of the incredible power and performance of the amazing body we call our own.

Four areas are covered: Strength, sight, brainpower and sensation. Learn what the human body can do in the most extreme circumstances.

A highly entertaining doc that illustrates the strength, ingenious yet automated nature of the human being.

Still looking for the doc that explains why Canadians have flappy heads though :(

Wow... cyborg vision... the wonderful possibilities for new adventures, positive experiences, learning opportunities, and original horrors.

I have always thought that we have less freedom of 'choice' in life than people always tend to think. So much of our experience and desire is automatic, intellectual free choice is often just a slave to the lower instinct. We have very little power even over our own bodies! Though hopefully in the future this will change.

Personally I have never experienced life-like dreams, as some of the lucid dreamers describe. My dreams rarely have any detail - only the bare minimum to create an feeling experience of the moment or an episode. I am always aware that I am dreaming... it is like my logic center never turns off.... even when I sleep. For example I have never had a dream where I feel present.

Science of dreaming is of course pretty vague and cryptic itself because of the immense complexity involved dealing with the phenomena.

If you think humans are incredible, you should see animals. We're not the best, fastest or strongest physical predator on the planet - what makes us so dangerous and successful are our brains.
